[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are all the Loudoun County gifted elementary students eventually going to high school? They all just be going to that one high school that made the list.

Seems like Fairfax County is turning out higher quality high schoolers than Loudoun which at least in part is due to AAP. What's the point of a great gifted program in elementary if it doesn't yield results in high schools?

And come on, the more wealth you have in an area, the better schools are. That is almost always true. So why does Loudoun not get the benefit of better schools than Fairfax even though they have higher average household income?[/quote]

Well, clearly it's because if this stellar AAP program you are all glowing and raving about all of the time.  :roll:  I've already answered your questions above and am not going to keep repeating myself if you cannot read.[/quote]

Your post makes no sense. How can you look at McLean and Langley  and know that wealth has a lot to do with their high marks but somehow that doesn't apply to the wealth in Loudoun? Those are only 2 high schools in Fairfax. What accounts for the others that made the list? According to your criteria Loudoun with it's greater wealth and fewer ELL should have more schools on the list than Fairfax but somehow doesn't.

And high school students in Fairfax don't just magically make stellar scores in high school to get ranked this high. These students have built their knowledge up to that point in the FCPS in elementary and middle schools.
